Bitcoin halving FAQs
What is the Bitcoin halving?
The Bitcoin halving is a pre-programmed event every 210,000 blocks that cuts the block subsidy miners receive by 50%. It controls inflation and caps total supply at 21 million BTC.
When is the next Bitcoin halving?
The next halving is projected for Apr 18, 2028 12:51:41 AM UTC (projected) at block 1,050,000. The reward will fall from 3.125 BTC to 1.5625 BTC per block.
How is the halving date calculated?
CoinWarz estimates the halving time from the current block height (961,180), blocks remaining (88,820), and the average block interval over the last 20,160 blocks (10 min 04 sec).
How does halving affect mining profit?
Halving reduces block revenue unless price rises to compensate. Use the Bitcoin mining calculator and Profit-per-Watt miner rankings to model profitability before and after the subsidy drop.
